by Bath & Body Works
Noir from Bath & Body Works is a simple yet well-balanced vanilla musk fragrance with a warm, powdery character. It opens with a crisp, slightly spicy note that hints at cardamom and black pepper, before settling into a soft, creamy vanilla base with subtle musk, leathery undertones, and a dry powdery trail. The scent is clean, comforting, and feels almost skin-like—ideal for casual wear, especially during cooler months. Though it lacks depth and complexity, it maintains a pleasant, inoffensive quality that appeals to those who prefer gentle, sweet scents without sharp or aggressive notes. It is particularly praised as a reliable, affordable choice for everyday use, offering a youthful, approachable vibe that works well in social or intimate settings. While not long-lasting, it lingers pleasantly through the day, especially when applied generously.
